About San Diego Detox and Residential
At San Diego Detox, healing starts with detox and continues with the stability of residential care. Each program is tailored to meet the needs of discerning individuals who want to reclaim their lives with dignity. Clients receive evidence-based treatment in an environment designed for calm and privacy.
Let Understand Be the Start of Healing
San Diego Detox takes a refreshingly human approach to recovery built on genuine understanding. Every treatment plan begins with listening to who each client is, what they’ve been through, and what they need to heal fully. Using a blend of evidence-based therapies, medical support, and holistic practices, they uncover and treat the root causes of addiction. The result is deeply personal care in a private, luxurious environment.
Wake up to Sunshine and a Fresh Start
Set on a peaceful Southern California campus, San Diego Detox feels like a retreat. Clients settle into private suites designed for comfort, surrounded by spaces that nurture the body and mind. Days might include a workout in the fitness center, a movie night in the cozy theater, or moments outside under the California sun. Even mealtimes feel special, shared with others on a healing journey.
Embrace the Next Chapter with Guidance
As a client’s stay draws to a close, San Diego Detox carefully weaves together a personalized aftercare plan. This plan might include outpatient therapy sessions, peer support groups, and medical check-ups to keep recovery on track. With this support in place, clients gradually step back into their communities.
